Sony
Pictures’ Screen Gems has just announced that the sixth installment
of the Sci-Fi, action horror film series, “Resident Evil”, has
commenced principal photography in South Africa.

Titled
“Resident Evil: The Final Chapter,” this will be the final
installment in the astoundingly successful film franchise adaptation
of Capcom’s hugely popular video game series, having grossed over
$1 billion worldwide to date.

Constantin
Film will produce “Resident Evil: The Final Chapter.” Director,
Paul W.S. Anderson, who wrote the screenplay, will shoot the film on
location in Johannesburg and Cape Town.

Milla
Jovovich will reprise her starring role as Alice. Other headline cast
includes Ali Larter (“Heroes,” Resident Evil: Afterlife) as
Claire Redfield, Iain Glen (“Game of Thrones,” Resident Evil:
Extinction) in the role of Dr. Alexander Isaacs, Shawn Roberts (Edge
of Darkness, Resident Evil: Afterlife) as Albert Wesker, Australian
actress Ruby Rose (“Orange is the New Black”), who has a huge
social media presence, as Abigail, Eoin Macken (“The Night Shift”)
as Doc, Cuban American actor William Levy, one of People en Español’s
reigning 50 Most Beautiful, as Christian, Fraser James (“Law &
Order: UK”) as Michael, and Japanese model and TV personality,
Rola, as Cobalt.

Picking
up immediately after the events in “Resident Evil: Retribution,”
humanity is on its last legs after Alice is betrayed by Wesker in
Washington D.C. As the only survivor of what was meant to be
humanity’s final stand against the undead hordes, Alice must return
to where the nightmare began – Raccoon City, where the Umbrella
Corporation is gathering its forces for a final strike against the
only remaining survivors of the apocalypse.

In
a race against time Alice will join forces with old friends, and an
unlikely ally, in an action packed battle with undead hordes and new
mutant monsters. Between losing her superhuman abilities and
Umbrella’s impending attack, this will be Alice’s most difficult
adventure as she fights to save humanity, which is on the brink of
oblivion.

“Resident
Evil: The Final Chapter” is produced by Jeremy Bolt, Paul W.S.
Anderson, Robert Kulzer and Samuel Hadida. Martin Moszkowicz

Doobie White.

Opens
across the Philippines in January 2017, “Resident Evil: The Final
Chapter” will be distributed by Columbia Pictures, the local office
of Sony Pictures Releasing International.
